Why buy a colonial renovator, put a huge amount of money and more importantly your time into it to arrive in 12 months time (or much later) where this house is today!!
The smart person can just walk in here and start enjoying living with your tastefully painted interior, modern bright practical kitchen, huge covered deck overlooking the in-ground pool adjacent to the shed that can be used for rumpus entertainment.
A better example of a colonial with VJ timber walls and ceilings, fret work and glass over doors, it also displays well polished honey coloured timber floors. Fans, air conditioning and a wood burner add to the comfort of the home.
Some kitchens in older homes make do. With a skylight, gloss white cabinet doors, a super pantry, many pot drawers for convenient storage, a free standing gas stove, plumbing for a fridge and a dishwasher, this kitchen doesn’t rule, it wins! Walk from the living room through elegant timber french doors to the outdoor room of the home and you get a feeling of pure relaxation. You also have a full length front veranda to the north.
The sleepout is currently used as an office and also includes the convenience of an upstairs laundry adjacent to the tiled bathroom with an original claw foot bath.
Even with the pool and shed, there is still plenty of yard space and it is fully fenced for children and dogs. More space is available under the house for storage, work shop or whatever. Raceview Primary School and Bremer Secondary School are a short drive. You can walk to Raceview Shopping Centre, stroll home from Raceview Tavern or Brothers Club and are a short drive to the Cunningham Highway for a clean run to Brisbane.
